Prosus profitability jumps 84%, free cash flow up US$2bn in 3 years

Prosus profitability

FY26 marked a year of delivery, with strong results, disciplined capital allocation and accelerating Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovation. Prosus delivered across its AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem of delivery, finance and experiences, while all regional ecosystems achieved profitability.

The company’s businesses became increasingly interconnected, driving higher engagement, stronger cross-selling and faster network effects. AI now operates at every layer, from agents that manage operations to life assistants that serve customers directly. ToqanClaw, the company’s agentic AI platform, is already available to more than five million restaurant partners and is building the intelligent systems that will define the next phase of commerce.

Highlights

CEO commentary

Prosus is building something fundamentally different, an AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem that gets smarter and stronger with every interaction. Eighteen months ago, this was a vision. Today, the integrated ecosystem is a reality, and it’s scaling fast. The more we grow, the greater the opportunity ahead.

Our AI capabilities are live, scaling and delivering real competitive advantage. We are moving from reactive platforms to intelligent systems that predict, personalise and execute, based on proprietary data. The Large Commerce Model, our agentic platform Toqan and our life assistants are changing how our customers and partners experience the digital economy. We said we would deliver results, innovation and discipline. We delivered all three. Prosus is much more than it was a year ago – and we are just getting started.

– Fabricio Bloisi, CEO at Prosus

CFO commentary

FY26 was a landmark year for Prosus. The company delivered strong free cash flow and tripled its ecosystem aEBITDA in two years. The company also achieved profitability across all three regional ecosystems. These results reflect the discipline of our teams and the compounding effect of consistent execution.

Looking ahead, we are deploying capital by investing in iFood and JET to strengthen our food ecosystem, continuing our buyback programme, and actively building Prosus Plus. Our fundamentals are strong, our strategy is clear, and we are confident in our ability to keep delivering value for shareholders.

– Nico Marais, CFO at Prosus
